Catfish

Pondering my options friday night and with all the water from kinzua it looks problematic.

Is there anyhope in driving south? If I make it all the way to templeton is there better water conditions.

Is there any encouraging catches of channels cats down that way. I'm worried about mud and access.

Keep in mind this is a LONG ways for me (100miles) and would probably be one of the only catfish trips of the years. so if the conditions are marginal, its probably best to stay at home. with sky high gas prices there's no point in spending all that money to get skunked (I'm sure I could find places around here to do that).
